Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates Welcomes Three New Agents Loring Woodriff Real Estate Associates welcomed three new agents to the firm this summer and is excited to introduce these uniquely accomplished individuals to the community. Jay Reeves, originally from California, moved to Virginia almost 20 years ago to be closer to his family. He worked as an administrator and coach at Woodberry Forest School where he crossed paths with his future wife. They moved to Charlottesville in 2000 where Jay continued to work in education, earning his M.Ed. from the Curry School at UVA along the way. He has paid close

attention to the Charlottesville real estate market since buying his first home in the area in 2000 and began his formal real estate career in 2014 with an initial focus on commercial transactions. All of Jay’s clients benefit from his unique combination of business acumen, broad market knowledge, and proven negotiating skills. His awareness of up-and-coming events in the business community can provide valuable and timely information to home buyers and sellers. Jay brings a high level of professionalism, a ready willingness to help, and a steady demeanor throughout the entire buying or selling process. His clients are appreciative of his sound guidance as he works with them to meet their real estate needs within their timeframe. With his educational background, love of sports, and understanding that children are the future, Jay keeps one toe involved in youth development, serving as a coach and mentor in the Charlottesville community. You might also find him watching one of his son’s sporting events, getting some exercise on a tennis or squash court, or swimming laps in the Boars Head pool. Reidar Stiernstrand is a Swedish Native who served in the Swedish Army and upon completion of service, attended the University of Karlstad. Reidar has spent most of his career to date working in the Automotive and Paper industries managing various Procurement and Logistics Divisions. His career afforded him the ability to travel across Europe on a regular basis. Reidar moved to Charlottesville in 2014 to be closer to his girlfriend. The two married shortly after and they enjoy exploring all the various places and things Charlottesville has to offer. Reidar serves as President of the Board of Condominium Association at The Gleason, where he resides. He is very interested in the development of the Charlottesville area, and spends a lot of time researching the various projects that are driving Charlottesville’s growth. With Reidar’s background in negotiating contracts, customer service,

and operational expertise, real estate is a natural fit. Reidar’s analytical and organizational skills, and his determination and passion for home improvements, help him guide his clients to choosing the perfect home that will fit their investment and lifestyle needs. Reidar speaks five languages, including English, German, Swedish, Norwegian and Danish. Genevieve Verlaak’s love for real estate took off when she moved to New England with her family and started a second career in real estate about a decade ago. The history of the older properties, their landscape design and architecture particularly intrigued Genevieve. She also relished meeting all of the wonderful people with whom she crossed paths in the context of marketing and selling their homes, and finding their next home. After obtaining an Architecture degree in Belgium, Genevieve began designing residential homes in Europe. In 1994 she brought her skills oversees to Richmond, Virginia where she also earned an MBA from the VCU School of Business. Genevieve met her husband in Richmond who is a native of Virginia and a UVA graduate. The recent move back to Virginia from New England and especially to Charlottesville, was an exciting step for both of them. Genevieve speaks English, Dutch, French and German and her architecture background provides unique insights into residential real estate sales and marketing. The analytical and business skills her MBA provide her with, in combination with her Architecture degree, ensure that Genevieve is extraordinarily well prepared to serve her clients with exceptional guidance, skill and vision in the buying and selling process.

nor, William Berkley, was cultivating 1,500 fruit trees; in 1694 he decreed that every planter must, “for every 500 acres granted him ... enclose and fence a quarter-acre of ground near his dwelling house for orchards and gardens.” By 1800, most plantations had orchards, and some grew as many as 10,000 trees.

Pickin’ Apples, Pickin’ Pumpki ns:

Orchard Hopping in Central Virginia

CAAR REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.CAAR.COM

BY KEN WILSON

ne day it’s 93 outside, but the next it’s 84, and they’re even calling for 81 later in the week. What season is this? Obviously it’s early fall, when the AC can take it easier in the evenings, and the nighttime temps will soon be perfect for sleeping. Better yet, if the heat is easing and the leaves are beginning to turn, that means it’s apple season, and pumpkin season too. Thomas Jefferson, Virginia’s first foodie, was of course an enthusiastic planter himself. “Cultivars of the earth are the most valuable citizens,” Jeffer-

son wrote John Jay in August 1785. “They are the most vigorous, the most independent. . . . and they are tied to their country and wedded to its liberty and interests by the most lasting bands.” Jefferson planted over one thousand fruit trees in Monticello’s South Orchard, including Hewe’s Crab and Taliaferro apple trees for making cider, and Newtown Pippin and Esopus Spitzenburg for good eating—one of his favorite pursuits. The Taliaferro, Jefferson said, was “the best cider apple existing,” producing a beverage “more like wine than any other liquor I have tasted which was not wine.” Today the Taliaferro is “Monticello’s mystery apple”—no one

is sure what it was. According to one 1835 description, the fruit was “the size of a grape shot, or from one to two inches in diameter; of a white color, streaked with red; with a sprightly acid, not good for the table, but apparently a very valuable cider fruit. This is understood to be a Virginia fruit, and the apple from which Mr. Jefferson’s favorite cider was made.” Cultivating fruit has a long history in these parts, going at least as far back as the early 17th century and the first English settlers in Jamestown. In 1629, Captain John Smith wrote that apples, peaches, apricots, and figs were “prosper[ing] exceedingly” in the Virginia Colony. By 1642 Virginia’s first gover-

Today Virginia is in fact the seventh largest apple-growing state in the country, with apple country stretching from the mountainous northern Shenandoah Valley through the Roanoke Valley into Albemarle and Rappahannock counties, and Patrick and Carroll counties in the southwest. Its roughly 150 commercial orchards yield an estimated 700 bushels per acre, 70 percent of which is sold for processing into apple cider and apple butter and other products. Monetarily, apples are our 15th largest crop, accounting for roughly $37 million in farm sales in 2014, the latest year for which data are available, and contributing an estimated $235 million annually to the state’s economy, according to the Virginia Apple Growers Association. Our growing hard cider industry includes more than 20 producers, who sell their products both locally and nationwide. All told, our apple bounty finds eager buyers in 15 states and more than 20 countries including India, Panama, Costa Rica, and Guatemala. Here at home come fall, it’s pick-your-own season, and harvest festivals abound. Despite a relatively warm winter followed by spring freezes and too much late spring and early summer rain, Virginia apple growers expect a good crop this year, albeit of slightly smaller than usual apples, according to the Virginia Department Of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Growers having been picking Gala apples since August are now picking Red and Golden Delicious. Ginger Gold, Pink Lady, McIntosh, Honey Crisp, Stayman and others will follow.

Fortunately, most of the state has had dry weather just prior to harvest, which brings out the fruit’s natural sugars and makes for very sweet apples. “It’s going to be a great apple season,” says Cynthia Chiles, whose family has been growing fruit in Albemarle County for over 100 years. Her great-grandfathers first planted peach and apple trees in Crozet in 1912, and began operating Carter Mountain Orchard in the 70s. After a bad freeze in 1974 left the family with so little fruit at either orchard that the usual picking and packing routine wasn’t worth its while, it ran an ad in the newspaper, “cleaned out a tiny section of an old barn, set up a card table and a cigar box, and wondered if anyone would come.” They did. They still do—what was meant to be a one-time, emergency measure became an annual April through November, pick-your-ownfruit tradition at now much-expanded farm stands at the Crozet and Carter Mountain orchards. Chiles Peach Orchard and Farm Market in Crozet is open from early May through Thanksgiving, selling peaches, strawberries, sweet cherries, pumpkins and apples. Local pickers have been welcome since the 1974 freeze. Visitors today will find a frozen yogurt machine, and an ice cream parlor too. Apples and peaches may be picked in season. Chiles’ Fourth Annual Fall Into Fun Festival on September 26 and 27 celebrates the season with apple and pumpkin picking plus games, prizes, and food. The Men of Mt. Moriah Methodist Church will be up all Friday night cooking apple butter in a kettle, finally putting the still warm treat into jars for sale around 1:00 p.m. on Saturday afternoon. Located next to Michie Tavern, down the road from Monticello, Carter Mountain Orchard offers a 40-mile view, and grows 17 varieties of apples plus three kinds of peaches. One of the family’s many little known apple varieties is the September Wonder, an early variety of Fuji, crisp and sweet. Picking season on the mountain starts in mid-August and runs through November; right now they’re picking Golden Delicious and Jonagold. Pumpkins, gourds and zinnias are on sale as well. Carter Mountain’s 2nd Annual Halloween “Spooktacular” is scheduled for broad daylight on October 30. Registration for the Pumpkin Carving Contest begins at 10:00 a.m. The contest is free but pumpkins must be purchased at Carter. Carving tools, props

pies will be sold by the slice to benefit the charitable efforts of the Cove Garden Ruritans. Seamans’ Orchard in Tyro in Nelson County grew out of a family agricultural business begun by the Lea brothers in 1933. Third and fourth generation Seamans still operate the orchard and live on the land today, growing Jonathan, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Virginia Gold, Mutsu, Jonagold, September Wonder (Early Fuji) and Empire apples. Seamans’ and Silver Creek Orchards, also in Tyro, have held Apple Butter Makin’ Festivals the first and third Saturdays in October for over 30 years. This year on October 1 and 15 from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Silvercreek, family members from both orchards will get together again to make apple butter the old-fashioned way in large copper kettles, constantly stirring it while it cooks. Their exact recipe, is a jointly held secret. Besides picking pumpkins and enjoying a lunch made by the Crozet Lions Club, festival goers will find craft booths, a corn maze, Mingo the Clown, and a host of children’s activities including scavenger hunts, hayrides, face painting, pumpkin painting, and donut decorating. Secrets of the Blue Ridge author Phil James will sign his books. The Maury River Band will play from 11:00 a.m.

to 3:00 p.m. on October 1, and Bennie Dodd will play on October 15. Products for sale will include apples, apple butter, jams, jellies, and cider. Graves Mountain Lodge in Syria opened in 1965. Their pick-your-own apple orchard is open from Saturday, September 20 through Sunday, October 19. Summer Rambo, Ginger Gold, McIntosh, Gala, Honeycrisp, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, and Royal Court (Courtland) apples are available in September. Grimes Golden, Empire and Stayman apples ripen in late September. Mutsu, York, Rome and Granny Smith apples ripen in early October, Winesaps and Fujis in mid-October, and Pink Ladies in late October. The 47th annual Graves Mountain Apple Harvest Festival will take place on October 1-2, 8-9, and 15-16, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Along with musical guests and cloggers, the festival will feature horseback rides and hayrides, a hay mountain, and a hay maze, and over 70 arts and crafts vendors. Festival goers can pick fruit, watch apple butter being cooked over an open fire, and admire goats, sheep, cows, pigs, chickens, peacocks, ducks and horses.

Pumpkin and gourd hunters in Madison County know to stop by Greenfield Farm, two miles north of Ruckersville on Dairy Road, where they

can choose from a variety of heirloom pumpkins, or pick their own. In addition, Greenfield is proud to offer “fun and educational activities for people of all ages.” Greenfield raises cows for

beef cattle, but it’s also home to miniature ponies, sheep and goats, a little potbellied pig, donkeys, a turkey, a chicken and a few bantam chickens. Farm manager Diane Branham grew up on the farm. Today she makes the five-acre corn maze, planting the corn in June, using grid paper to draw a pattern, clearing rows in the cornfield, and staking eight mailboxes for kids to find clues in. Trips through the maze typically take 30 to 60 minutes. The object is to find each mailbox. Hayrides at Greenfield run every hour on the hour on weekends, but kids can also enjoy a giant hay slide, a spider climb up large bales of hay, a rope spider web, plus sand and corn pits. Toddlers can romp in the kiddie corral. Greenfield is open Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Sundays from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Groups of 10 or more are welcome anytime, but should call ahead for appointments during the week. The $6 admission charge includes all the activities. Kids under 2 are free with adult admission. Apple cider, apple butter, and hearty Virginia apples themselves – now’s the time! n

COMMUNITY

SEPTEMBER 22 - SEPTEMBER 28, 2016 ISSUE 25-38

“P

erhaps the first and biggest benefit people get from volunteering is the satisfaction of incorporating service into their lives and making a difference in their community and country,” says the Corporation for National and Community Service. A seldom recognized bonus: In the past twenty years, studies have shown that people who volunteer reap health benefits such as lower mortality rates, greater functional ability, and lower rates of depression later in life than those who do not volunteer. For some folks, volunteering just comes naturally. They are generous with their time and money without even realizing the enormous positive difference they make in their communities. In 2014, for example, Virginians ranked 18th among all states for volunteering with more than 30 percent of residents donating more than 300 million hours of service and $7 billion (yes, billion!) in the value of services contributed. Some people, of course, volunteer for groups involving their own children as a room parent, soccer coach, or scout leader. Others volunteer for their religious organization such as Linda (who prefers not to use her last name) who serves on Thursdays at Holy Comforter’s soup kitchen. “My Dad used to take us to feed the poor,” she recalls. “Yesterday we served 237 people who came in for lunch. I love talking with the people and I know we make a difference. Can you imagine just being hungry here in Charlottesville?” Linda’s husband volunteers at several organizations including Meals on Wheels. Others serve a remarkable range of services in our region from volunteer firefighters to dog walkers to hospice friendly visitors, food closet staffers and much more.

Big Impact On a large scale, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville has partnered with 170 low-income families in the past 25 years to help them become homeowners. Using the basic Habitat model, community volunteers join forces with people who are working to own their own homes. Hundreds of volunteers work on committees, serve at the Habitat Resale Store on Harris Street with its inventory of donated building supplies, and actually help build homes. “Habitat is a place where a woman can lift a hammer and work,” says Charlottesville resident Deb Shapiro, “and there are challenges like the time

Volunteers serve a remarkable range of services in our region from volunteer firefighters to dog walkers to hospice friendly visitors, food closet staffers and much more.

Making a Difference IN OUR COMMUNITY BY MARILYN PRIBUS

I was up on a roof. It’s a great opportunity to serve the community and learn skills at the same time.” The individuals seeking to own a Habitat home must attend a variety of classes related to home ownership and contribute many hours of work. “Getting housing is a blessing for the own-

ers,” Shapiro says, “but it’s not a hand out. It’s definitely something they have earned.” More recently Habitat has shifted its focus from single dwellings to entire neighborhoods such as Southwood. Almost ten years ago, Habitat purchased the 100-acre Southwood

Mobile Home Park which today has nearly 350 trailers and more than 1,500 residents. The long-term plan is to redevelop the site as a mixed-income neighborhood and Habitat has already invested more than $2 million on maintenance, sewer upgrades and repairs. Habitat clearly improves the low-income housing situation in our area, which makes a big difference to the new homeowners, but also to the community as a whole. For information, visit CvilleHabitat.org. Many thrift shops in our region are almost entirely staffed by volunteers who pick up, accept and sort donations and serve at cash registers for worthy causes. Examples are Twice is Nice on Preston Avenue that supports JABA’s Mountainside residence in Crozet, the Schoolhouse Thrift Shop on Rio Road that supports several local agencies including Habitat, the SPCA Rummage Store in Seminole Square that helps fund the local shelter, and the Salvation Army Thrift Store on Cherry Avenue that furthers the organization’s mission.

One at a Time Some agencies have volunteers who help just one person at a time. For example, Tori Tremaglio is a tutor with Literacy Volunteers of Charlottesville/ Albemarle. In the past year, 336 volunteers, from 18 to over 85, worked with 413 students. (A training session for new tutors is scheduled for Saturday, September 24th with another in

Over the years she has volunteered in positions from Cub Scout den mother to a listener at a suicide hotline. She is currently a member of the Charlottesville Threshold Choir which sings for hospice patients and others in need of strength, comfort, and peace.

I love the one-onone format and you can make an incredible difference in one person’s life.” The relationship often goes beyond simply teaching someone to read. Tremaglio reports that her student is now navigating buses, working, and using the library because she got a library card. “I’ve worked with four people over the years.
